How can you differentiate ash-tang yoga from vinyas yoga and power yoga?
Ashtanga Yoga is actually Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga. Ashtanga means 'eight limbed' and Vinyasa means 'to place in a special way'. The eight limbs refers to the eight yogic paths in Patanjali's Yoga Sutras. Sometimes listed as separate types of classes at a yoga studio, Vinyasa yoga tends to be more fluid, and flowing; linking movement with breath. Vinyasa classes can be slow and gentle or more vigorous depending on the class description. Ashtanga, also a fluid class, is often a very specific set of poses done in a specific sequence. Power yoga, is a general phrase used in the West as a catch-all to describe vigorous, fitness-based yoga classes. They tend to flow like a Vinyasa class, but much faster and intense.
What is the underlying view of the divine in karma yoga?
The practice of Karma Yoga is considered to be following the path of ritual action. Each person is considered to have a different Dharma, or law of the universe, that applies to them. Much of this is determined based on conditions you were born into, or the results from Karma accumulated from past lives. Karma yoga would be accepting the role you were born into and trying to do that role as best as you can.Many that follow this path also follow the path of devotion, or Bhakti Yoga, in which they try to adhere to the wishes of a particular divine being or god.There is often a mixture of paths when it comes to Hindu religious practice.
